How do I patch CarbonCore framework in Snow Leopard 10.6 to end freezes?

Hello community,
     Ever since I updated my early core duo (1,1) MacBookPro to 10.6 (the highest software it can use) It has frozen crashed and rebuilds the directory on restarts.
My Mac Mini which can run Lion did the exact same thing when I did a system update through the built in updater. The MBP is set up for recording music ala Apple Logic Pro and the other is set up as a standard office machine. Being a novice programmer I have struggled with resolving this issue for many months and the only solice I get is the fact that many, and I mean quite a few mac users have and continue to have this problem with 10.6.x and many internet browsers. (which seem to be a common thread that exacerbates and accelerates the error )
I get this error report in my log file :
Firewall[57]: CarbonCore.framework: coreservicesd process died; attempting to reconnect but future use may result in erroneous behavior.
Also an appfinder error.
I have used terminal to keep my finder from freezing by running :  
/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder &
and letting terminal run in the background.
This delays the crash , however there must be a permenant solution.
Has anyone else had any success with fixing this software glitch.
Others report that clean install systems with nothing but out of the box software exhibit the same freeze and force reboot problem with 10.6..... and some
core2 duos.
10.5 runs perfectly but won't interface with my network and ios devices which is crucial..... By the way my older G4 powerbook runs leopard 10.5 great
although a little slow loading... I wouldn't have spent the $2500.00 if I knew there would be unresolved software issues down the line.... and no upgrade path.
Thanks, any info is appreciated...

  • I have installed mountain lion on my macbook pro ,but it made my mac very slow. Would someone please tell me how  to uninstall this one and reinstall snow leopard?

    Hello,
    I have installed mountain lion on my macbook pro ,but it made my mac very slow. Would someone please tell me how  to uninstall this one and reinstall snow leopard? I tried to do it by my original CDs but macbook  pro didn't let me to do it.
    Thanks

    It would be easier to just fix whatever is making your machine slow.
    I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.

    You would reinstall 10.6 using your installation DVD.
    Out of curiosity, how much RAM do you have? Recent versions of OS X really shine with 4GB or more.

  • How can I install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Mac OS X Tiger?

    Hello. Can someone tell me how I can install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Mac OS X Tiger? I have the disk, but when I open the installer, I get a message saying that Snow Leopard could not be installed on my computer and it could only be installed on a Intel-Based Mac. This is a PowerPC Mac, so that makes sense.
    So, I'm trying to ask how to make my Mac an Intel-Based Mac so I could install Snow Leopard. Or if I can't do that, I need to know how to install Snow Leopard some other way. Please help.

    Just an FYI, the Mac App Store was introduced with Mac OS X 10.6.6.    However the rest of what you say is accurate.
    10.6.8 is required if you want to upgrade certain Macs beyond 10.7.5 without having to reformat the drive you are installing the operating system on and without having to install some version of 10.7 first.
    One can actually install 10.7 or later if you maintain an original copy of the full installer of the operating system in question for your personal use without having to have the prerequisite operating system installed, if the hardware supported it.  But that's a discussion for another forum.
    For HFTaylor,
    Consider buying a used or refurbished Mac with an Intel CPU depending on your needs.  Read this tip about the migration of data from PowerPC to Intel before proceeding:

  • Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    I need to check a few other things...
    Click on 'Mail' in the upper left corner next to the Apple ()
    Click Preferences
    Click the 'Accounts' tab
    Make sure your iCloud account is highlighted in the column on the left.
    In the account information section what does it say next to:
    Incoming Mail Server?
    Outgoing Mail Server?
    Also, did you use MobileMe before the iCloud?

    You'll be given the option to change the target after the download is complete and before the actual installation begins. The process is otherwise the same as normal.

  • How can i get xcode for osx snow leopard?

    how can i get xcode for osx snow leopard?

    I'm an experienced software developer (C, C++, Lisp, Linux, Unix, etc) but have never done any Mac development, and wanted to try some stuff on my iMac at home, but I have Snow Leopard and most of the turtorials I looked at said the first thing I had to do was download XCode and the first thing that happened when I tried to do that was it said I had to upgrade to Lion.
    My iMac is running SnowLeopard.   I don't have any big reason to stay at SnowLeopard, but from stuff I've seen in the forums I can't see any big reason to upgrade to Lion.   I might eventually want to do development for IOS on an iphone or iPad, but for now I just want to do a simple tutorial app for my iMac.
    I found the downloads search page, and it looks like there's two versions of Xcode  3.2.7 which has a release date of Sep 2011, and 3.2 with a release date of Jan 2012.
    Which one should I download?   And if I download one of these will it be a problem if I do upgrade to Lion in a few months?

  • How much is it to upgrade form Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion and can it be done in one hit?

    How much is it to upgrade form Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion and can it be done in one hit?

    Run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • HELP! How do I remove Lion and reinstall Snow Leopard and my files

    HELP! How do I remove Lion and reinstall Snow Leopard & my files  BUT I just discovered my Apple Time Capsule which was using Time Machine DIED
    I had to go to MacMall and have the Time Capsule data transfered to a new BAK drive($300+$300)
    (The Apple Store sent me there as they said they do not do data transfer)
    Now what do I do?
    ? ?  One Senior advisor said that I will have to drag and drop the data file or files? from the Time Capsule BAK drive back to my iMAC but will that include all           the Snow Leopard operating system ?
    ? ?  Another senior advisor said I will have to wipe my hard drive then install Snow Leopard then "drag and drop",  ?  ??
    All my business leases, database, spreadsheets. letters, mail merge files, and so on are not available with Lion -
    I AM VERY ANGRY AS I NEVER SAW THAT WRITTEN ANYWHERE !!!
    I am seriously confused and I AM SCARED TO MAKE A MISTAKE-HELP !!
    WHAT DO I DO ?  AND   IN WHAT ORDER? PLEASE HELP!

    Your post is confusing to read too.
    It sounds like you still have your files on your Mac. Why do you want to back track to Snow Leopard on your Mac? Why can't you read your files from your Mac? If your files are on your Mac, why are you taking them off your broken Time Capsule? You don't have to install Snow Leopard to transfer your files back to your Mac. Maybe step back a bit and explain your situation a little better with details.  For instance, what's a BAK drive? Suggest you explain what you are trying to do?
    Before you do anything, create a backup of your Mac to another disk drive.. suggest you use Carbon Copy Cloner to make another copy of your Mac.

  • How can I upgrade from OS X Snow Leopard to OS X Lion?

    How can I upgrade from OS X Snow Leopard to OS X Lion?

    Well Mt Lion is the latest, but if your machine can't do 10.8, then call Apple via phone and order 10.7
    However you really need to do your homework first, as a lot of software and drivers could stop in 10.7, no Rosetta like in 10.6, could cost you plenty.

    A Mac OS 10.6 retail DVD can be obtained for only $20. Of course that depends on where you live, but if available to you, it is a reasonable price, and will solve your current problem.

  • How do I downgrade from Lion to Snow Leopard without losing iWork 09?  I upgraded my MBP from 10.5 (originally 10.4) to 10.6, then again to 10.7.  Should I go back to 10.4, 10.5 or just to 10.6?

    How do I downgrade from Lion to Snow Leopard without losing iWork 09?  I upgraded my MBP from 10.5 (originally 10.4) to 10.6, then again to 10.7.  Should I go back to 10.4, 10.5 or just to 10.6? I don't remember which system included iWork 09 and don't want to lose it. Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the information!  My sister gave me the MBP for my daughter with Leopard installed.  I purchased Snow Leopard and installed it, then my daughter purchased Lion.  So I do have all the installers.  If iWork wasn't included with any of those, I guess my sister purchased it while running Leopard.  I'll have to contact her.  Thanks again.

  • How can I tell where the OS (Snow Leopard) is? I'm not sure if it is on the SSD or the regular HD.

    How can I tell where the OS (Snow Leopard) is? I’m not sure if it is on the SSD or the regular HD. I just had a rough weekend trying to back things up with Time Machine and I think the OS was copied to the regular HD, or could be in two places? How do I find where the OS is? If it is on the regular drive I want to put it on the SSD.
    Thank you very much!

    Some recent systems don't observe that convention - not sure at the moment about Snow Leopard but I have a feeling it doesn't.
    Copy the following into the AppleScript Editor (in Applications/Utilities)
    set dsk to the path to startup disk as string
    display dialog dsk
    click the 'run' button.
